I’m Forty-One, the moon is full
Bb
You make love very well
Gm
You touch me like I touch myself
Bb D7
I like you Mademoiselle
You’re so fresh and you’re so new
I do enjoy you, Miss
There’s nothing I would rather do
Than move around just like this
Bb Eb Bb
But do I have to dance all night?
Eb Bb
But do I have to dance all night?
Eb Bb
Ooh tell me, Bird of Paradise
Eb Bb
Do I have to dance all night?
You never have to tell me what
It is you really think of me – alright
Let’s say I’m doing fine
But do I have to dance all night?
But do I have to dance all night?
But do I have to dance all night?
Ooh tell me, Bird of Paradise
Do I have to dance all night?
Gm Dm
I learned this step a while ago
Gm Dm
I had to practice it while everybody slept
C G
I waited half my life for you, you know
Bb F
I didn’t even think that you’d accept
Ab Eb
And here you are before me in the flesh
Gm Bb D7
Saying “Yes, yes, yes!”
But do I have to dance all night?
Do I have to dance all night?
Come on tell me, Bird of Paradise
Do I have to dance all night?
I learned this step a while ago
I had to practice it while everybody slept
I waited half my life for you, you know
I never really thought that you’d accept
And here you are before me in the flesh
Saying “Yes, yes, yes!”
But do I have to dance all night?
Do I have to dance all night?
Ooh tell me, Bird of Paradise
Do I have to dance all night?
“Goodnight friends, thank you very much!”
